When I fly in to Cairns I love looking out of the window at the mangroves. They are a very important habitat for many creatures, please don't remove their home. The mangroves are beautiful - keep them there!

Without healthy mangrove areas our reef ecosystems are threatened. Destruction of the mangroves will lead to destruction of the reefs, which in turn will lead to a decrease in tourism. A reduction in tourism will make any expansion of the Cairns Airport redundant. Avoid environmentally detrimental and expensive outcomes by leaving the mangrove forest as intact as possible, it is already a shadow of it's former self.

The ecological contribution of mangrove ecosystems are particularly important in populated areas where they support local fisheries and river health. The mangroves at the Cairns airport also provide one of the most spectacular visual displays of their type I have seen anywhere, and provide a great introduction to our ecotourism orientated north.

Planning requests for retail space such as this are out of sequence with current and medium term community needs and should be rejected

All the rest of the pre existing mangroves have been destroyed. These are important areas for habitat, education to tourists and new locals, not to mention the protection of our coast from storm surges etc. Australian land mass will be washed into seas. And probably not a really sturdy ground to build upon anyways! Better off looking to expand northwards of current airport. thank you
